About this property

5th-Floor Oceanfront Penthouse, 3BR w Loft, Bejuco Beach - Playa Pura Vida

Welcome to Playa Pura Vida, a 5th-floor oceanfront penthouse, one of only 4 units out of 120 in the complex, on Playa Bejuco. This 3BR/2BA condo, with the loft serving as the third bedroom, sleeps 6-7 guests comfortably. Two private balconies deliver panoramic ocean and sunset views you won't find anywhere else in the complex.

Bedroom 1 is oceanfront with its own private bathroom, first-level balcony access, a new king bed, Smart TV, A/C, and closet space.
Bedroom 2 has a bunk bed setup (full/twin combo) with a dresser, mirror, and A/C, ideal for kids or extra guests.
The Loft, Bedroom 3, is reached via wooden stairs and features a new queen bed, a plush gaming/TV chair, a Smart TV, a desk and chair, and its own access to the second-floor balcony.
The Living Room has a comfortable sleeper sofa, a Smart TV, A/C, and access to the first-level balcony, perfect for a 7th guest or lounging with an ocean view.

The kitchen is fully equipped for real cooking, not just reheating: a full electric range with oven (most units in the complex only have a cooktop), refrigerator, microwave, toaster, rice maker, blender, coffee maker, and crockpot, plus a complete set of cups, plates, utensils, pots, and pans.

Fiber internet runs up to 600 Mbps, tested in the high 400s throughout the condo on WiFi, so remote work and streaming are no problem. Many outlets throughout the unit include built-in USB ports. Private laundry is available in-unit.

As a Building 3 & 4 resident, you get exclusive access to a private pool and cabana that the rest of the complex doesn't have, on top of 4 additional community pools, a 6th-floor rooftop sundeck, outdoor showers, ping-pong, foosball, playgrounds, basketball, and tennis courts. Watch for sloths and macaws right from your balcony, this stretch of jungle backs up to the property.

Rainy-day or evening-in? You're covered: chess, checkers, Jenga, Connect Four, dominoes, Uno, playing cards, and more board games are on hand, along with flashlights, binoculars, a monocular, and a portable speaker.

Every piece of furniture and artwork in the unit is locally sourced and handcrafted by Costa Rican artisans, giving the space real character instead of big-box furnishings.

Location: Located beachfront, just steps from Bejuco's virgin ecosystem beach, lined with palm and almond trees. Walking distance to a local food market, restaurants, and shops. A beachfront restaurant is a 5-minute walk, and a shopping plaza with a grocery store and more restaurants is about 10 minutes on foot (0.5 miles). Jaco and Quepos are roughly 25 minutes by car for a wider range of tourist markets. Manuel Antonio National Park is about 45 minutes away by car.

Access & Security: 24/7 armed security guards the road and beach entrances. Smart lock entry means no keys to juggle, just a code sent before arrival. Bracelets are provided for gated community access. Free private parking space included, plus easy access to Uber and local taxis.

Beach day, sorted: Four beach chairs, a beach blanket, beach coolers and bags, beach towels, a boogie board, and a soccer ball, football, and frisbee are all provided, no packing extra gear.

The neighborhood: Condominium Malaga sits in Bejuco's most sought-after stretch of beach, surrounded by surf camps, pharmacies, and supermarkets just minutes away. Nearby highlights include Farmacia Gema, Town Center Market, a local gas station, The Riding Adventure at Rancho Savegre, Esterillos Beach Bike Rentals, Royal Butterflies, The Park at Ocean Ranch, and Chiclets Zipline. Manuel Antonio National Park is about 45 minutes away, and Juan SantamarĂ­a International Airport is roughly 2 hours by car.

Live the Pura Vida lifestyle at Playa Pura Vida, in a community that balances relaxation with adventure, right on one of the Central Pacific's most beautiful beaches.
